    Rusty glad to hear you got the invites done. I hope you got a generous tip for all the messing about at the beginning.
    We have been to Antony House before but the Alice in Wonderlands garden will be interesting. I haven't seen the film either but we were thinking about going to the IMAX at Bradford to see it. Might be too scary on a screen that big!!

    I charged her lots :rotfl: I charged her £120 for 80 day invites (materials cost me about £30) and then £60 for 150 evening invites which were just printed on paper (materials cost approx £12)
    Remember you can sometimes get cinema tickets on clubcard deals but think it is cinema dependant i.e cineworld, uci etc etc rather than places. I wish I was coming with you! Can you fit me in your pocket? Did you see you can get free entry if you dress up? :rotfl:


    Choccy - Wow what a treat for the boys, bet they loved it, I will check blogs out later on ;)

    Thanks my list arrived on sat. There were a few of you local ish to me. I still haven't bought any spellbinders nestabilities it is driving me around the bend. I want quite a few and i want them now that's my problem and am comparing lots of sites to get them as cheap as i can. I keep getting a bit confussed with all the converting from dollars then using vouchers codes etc I would like circles, scallops, labels and flowers but is it worth my while or cheaper to buy the set of 4 dies or buy them on there own?
    like this or this I can't decide.
    I wouldn't be getting them from that website though.
    :)Mummy to 2 wonderful boys :)

    Sorry - I haven't had chance to catch up properly but wanted to pop on and say "hello".

    Rusty - congrats on getting your wedding order done and making such a fantastic profit!

    Choccy - I love the wrestling - myself. OH and our nephew went to see it last year - we had great seats and were nearly at the front. Leo and Brandon have just got into it and are constantly watching WWE dvds - I'm hoping to take them this year if they come to Liverpool again.

    I've posted pics on my blog of the room I've redecorated if you'd like a nosey. I was thinking I wouldn't get any crafting done today but I have had my sewing machine out to adjust a curtain & make a curtain & tie-back so I have done without even realising!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    Choccy your boys look like they had a fab time my son would have loved that we took him to see TNA wrestling earlier in the year and he got to meet quite a few of the wrestlers he loved it.
    Rusty well done on earning that much for your invites make it worth all the hassle.
